I had one of these a long time ago. I believe this is a dry lane ball, with a small flip on the backend. Should give you a smooth, rather mild arc on the lanes. Hope that helps.
Some days you're the bug....some days you're the windshield...that's bowling!

This was an awesome dry lane ball back in the day. You could probably fetch $300-400 on a few facebook groups for this NIB and 15 lbs.
